Tell me the Lakers don't need a REAL head coach...
Skindiana bon3z:
offseason goals:
Get a head coach
Point Guard (Chucky Atkins is too small, can't defend)
Center (Chris Mihm is more of a power forward)

See, they don't even really have to get rid of players like Chris Mihm and Chucky Atkins...Chris Mihm actually has some potential to be a dangerous center, but he's just not playing on that level now, I know Phil Jackson can get him there...Chucky Atkins would actually be a really good role playe or a 6th man...What the Lakers really need though is another player who can take some weight off of Kobe's shoulders, a player who can work under Kobe, yet has perfected his game and plays on an All-Star level...Lamar Odom has great potential to be that player, but his confidence and his skill are in two different universes...So if Lamar Odom doesn't wake up and bust his ass until he's perfected his game this summer, the Lakers will need to acquire another player who's willing to play that role...Now that I think about it, Carlos Boozer woulda' been an excellent addition...Too bad that trade (Butler and George for Boozer) never happened...Oh well, this summer should be interesting for the Lakers...Lets see what they do...PeACe

What they really need to do is trade Kobe. But the Laker organization would never swallow their pride and do that. It would be an admission that they made the wrong move. They could still get 2 good players for him. I dont see them winning a championship for quite a long time anyways. And Kobe's reputation around the league isnt all that great as far as being an appealing player to play with. They could start trying to build a championship callaber team, without trying to rely on one guy. Especially if the one guy isnt up to it. Build a Pistons kinda squad. One that plays together. Not one that can never get in rhythm cus only one guy takes all the shot.
